Psionic Subspace is a semi-interdimensional medium which allows for objects (typically spacecrafts) to travel from place-to-place at speeds exceeding the speed of light (299,792,458 m/s) thanks to its highly irregular and inconsistent space-time. Psionic Subspace 'physically' exists as an abnormal semi-permeable 'dimension' between corporeal reality and the Semiosphere, the buffer between the Noosphere and corporeal reality. Due to a series of limitations in its usage, it has not seen significant implementation despite theoretically being faster and more energy-efficient than Voidspace travel.

Topography

Psionic Subspace's topography is incredibly unusual and chaotic, physically largely consisting of Memoria mixed with a mess of semi-permeable matter leaking in from Baseline Reality. Functionally, Psionic Subspace can at least partially be considered a 'Memoria Space' although it by definition does not possess all of the traits one may expect to see in one, mostly thanks to its position as a unstable subspace between material reality and a non-corporeal realm consisting purely of thoughts in Memoria form.

FTL Applications

Thanks to its instability and messy composition, space-time within Psionic Subspace is incredibly inconsistent and irregular, allowing for spacecrafts within it to cross massive distances in corporeal reality within mere hours or days. In order to make use of it for FTL travel a ship must be equipped with a 'Psionic Warp-Drive', a device that shares several design similarities to Voidspace Drives, utilising Void Matter (or another unstable matter) to cause a controlled collapse-of the vessel which is combined with the presence of a concentration of dense psionic attunement to make the Ship not transition over to Voidspace, but instead slip into a sub-layer between voidspace/corporeal reality and the Semiosphere, acting as a zone where the two mix together.

Unlike Voidspace which is at least manageably inconsistent, navigating Psionic Subspace is completely impossible without the necessary prerequisites, almost exclusively ending in death if piloted by 'ordinary' individuals. The only way to reliably navigate thru Psionic Subspace is to have a pilot belonging to one of a few sufficiently psionically attuned species whom has consumed psionic stimulants, allowing them to navigate Psionic Subspace with some degree of reliability thanks to being perceive mental connections at a greatly heightened rate due to the nearby presence of the Noosphere. With the necessary prerequisites (psionic-species pilot, psionic stimulants), a ship may now navigate thru Psionic Sub-space. Though despite its speed greatly exceeding that of Voidspace and theoretically lacking as rigid of a physics-induced distance limit, the only way to navigate thru Psispace is for the pilot to personally know a conscious being at the 'arrival point' so that they may sense them thru the Noosphere, greatly limiting its usage as any attempts to work-around this have failed as a familiar psionic signature appears to be a necessity to navigate Psispace, making its use in exploration or military usage highly impractical while allowing use in logistics and peacetime transport a feasible use.
